Are these containers saved for later use when I restart the browser? Or do I have to create a new container and login again?

@Justly0250 @moody two things:
- Firefox has now, without extensions, "total cookie protection" that prevents one website to access another site's cookies (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/introducing-total-cookie-protection-standard-mode), so as far as tracking protection go, no extension needed

- Mutli-Account Containers add another capability: different cookies for the same site in different containers, like being logged to two different accounts on one site in different containers - and that is saved between sessions.

and that is saved between sessions.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check this feature out.
